All published scholarly work is expected to have been conducted in an ethical and responsible manner. Contributors are expected to follow the ethical policy of their institution(s), providing explicit reference to ethical approval within the work.
Because publications can affect not only the academic community but also students and, potentially, society at large, contributors have a responsibility to ensure that their work is honest, clear, accurate, complete and balanced, and should avoid misleading, selective or ambiguous reporting.
